Is it normal that most all teenagers are little jerks?

Im so tired of all these little teeny boppers and teenagers that act like their shit dont stink! Well I think it does, and hopefully once they turn 18 they will realize we live in the real world and mommy and daddy's money wont always be there to buy all ur little teenage douchebag items! I understand that a lot of how these kids are is because their parents are possibly also douchebags that spoil them rotten, so yeah I suppose I have a problem with them as well! Anyone who is an adult should understand where im coming from on this and if not then you must be oblivious to the world. I am aware that not all teenagers are horrible little snots but most of them are. I myself was pretty decent and I even had a job at 16 and so on through Highschool and kept my grades up and did my chores and respected my parents, so this is crazy how different these kids seem from when I was one and no it wasnt very long ago! I only bring this up because I have noticed this a lot in public how stupid they act, and because my husbands cousin who is sixteen is a complete little shit that doesnt even clean up after himself. Im sorry but my parents didnt have to tell me to pick up after myself, this should be common sense and respect for a place u dont pay for. Just saying....

  • Not normal to me. Of all the teenagers I've met most were fairly nice and reasonable.

    But if you treat them as jerks they'll be jerks to you.

    I agree and I, like Sick am also a teenager. I was talking with my boyfriend the other day when a couple of kids who couldn't have been older then 9 started saying abusive words to us that I didn't even know until I was about 14! We were shocked! What is with this generation? All of us teenagers are trying to be 'cool' but really your just being a bunch of pricks. ¬.¬

    I think it's coz it's so much easier for parents to give the kids 'things' than to spend time with them. Some of the gadgets are substitute baby-sitters but don't generate memories for the kids. The parents later moan that they don't understand their kids or know what they're up to. It's their own fault!
    I have always worked with reverse psychology on my teenager so he came home from school one day to find a new poster on his wall.
    "Tired of your annoying parents? Why not move out while you still know it all?"

    I also told him the police remove him from the house when he is the legal age to leave ;o) Whereas the reality is, I love him to bits and want him to stay with us forever. He's a good soul who has impeccable manners, and gets As at school. (I tell him Bs = Beatings, Cs = Cancelled Computer).

    You don't get what you deserve, you get what you settle for - and I don't take any shit!!

    Actually, when I became a teen was when I started growing up. But I'm a girl, and girls mature faster than boys. I agree with part of what you said, parents usually have some impact on how their kids turn out.

  • I agree completely and I myself am a teenager. The problem lies within the parents, as you said. I've been noticing that a lot of adults,now parents, grew up in a harsh time when the economy was in a turmoil. They worked hard and achieved their dreams because of the hardships they faced. Most kids don't have the same hardships their parents faced, instead they have Ipods and luxuries. Maybe their parents are trying to give their kids what they never had, it's just that they didn't expect their kids to become spoiled teenagers who don't appreciate how hard their parents have worked. If kids maybe got a glimpse of what their parents had to go through, then maybe they wouldn't be as bad or materialistic.

    They won't realize when they turn 18. Maybe 25, but I wouldn't hold my breath. The current crop of 16-early 20's are so self-entitled they'll probably give baby boomers a run for their money on the being big dicks scale.

    In my experience if you are fair with teenagers then they will be fair with you. I have always believed that to get respect you have to give it. I also have to remind that you yourself where a teenager yourself one day. While I do agree there are some bad teenagers who have no morals at all. However the majority are just learning about who they are and having fun. Hands up who hasn't played loud booming music as a teenager, because I have. Also if you accuse someone of being as you put "A jerk" then they will live up to it. xx

    I hate it too
    Some of the older teens around 16-19 aren't as bad as the 13-15 year olds though
    They just keep getting worse and worse with each generation and the parents wanting to be their kids friend before being the parent doesn't help
    It's not always that kids parent though
    It can depend on the school they go to also
    Kids that are bad influences because of their parents can rub it off onto others and just messes up everyone

    yes but i only notice it bcuz i myself was an entitled snotty little brat for many years. I was in my early 20's b4 i even realized that my mother was a real person! now when i read all these posts on iin about "oh, i hate my parents bcuz they wont let me stay out as late as all my friends, or they wont let me have a boyfriend, or they wont wipe my ass for me" it grates on my nerves to no end. I am a parent now and see how much work it is. I cant believe i ever treated my mother the way i did. i guess its a normal developmental stage but i just want to shake these little fuckers and yell "wake the fuck up!".

  • I am 17 now and when I think back to my teenage-time I'm like omg I was a completely different person. Teenagers today are under a lot of pressure and all that shit ok thats maybe 50% and the other 50% are the parents... Today, parents don't know anymore how to educate / prepare their children for life and spoil them!
    I really agree with you btw

    I'm so with you! I'm so sick of those little punk asses! Its so funny to them when they almost get run over because they are too cool to look before they ride across the street. Pisses me off. And, oh my gosh, you should see all the nice cars in the student lot at the high school!!! Burns my ass! Bmw's, audi's, mercedes... Grrrr. Great starter car. Pft!

    Unfortunately, yes teenagers are little jerks.

    I have a wonderful vision in which adults are created, not born in some sort of machine. That way we can eliminate the sights and sounds of unfortunate shambling mobs of gobs of oil wrapped in skinny jeans and lop sided multicoloured awful haircuts.

    I don't like them, I used to be one so they can furrow their brows in a vain attempt to understand our frustrations with them. Maybe even use vulgar language if they please. They're moody, smelly, make poor decisions, look awful, spotty, are excessively loud - especially in confined spaces, greasy to the touch etc.

    It's down to biochemistry, not only the classic cause of 'hormones' - there's also a whole mess of redundant neuron connections (synapses?) in the teenage brain that need to be trimmed back as they develop into adults. Hopefully the brain pruning some of those redundant neurons remedying some of the traits that some folks find disagreeable.

    Rapid change to the internal chemistry, a developing brain, a (temporary) drop in IQ, new found innate urges to prove selective fitness and procure matings (I presume that's why they congregate in large groups), as well as peer pressure due to their hive mentality and having us grown ups giving them 'grief' - being a teenager must be quite a hard work... All lead to the behaviors and other undesirable qualities that appear to drive other inhabitants of this mortal realm absolutely mad.

    Then there are cultural reasons and don't get me started on the media! I suppose we don't have the (aren't we lucky) misfortune of having to be a teenager in a time where advertising is absolutely everywhere. A time where an image is being pushed in your face where you either have to be a lop fringed crybaby clad in black, or a rich idiot that somehow, miraculously, came from a housing estate by reciting poetry to a beat... Don't even get me started on this modern music! Pop culture is more annoying than a horde of teenagers.

    However I suppose they're not all bad, maybe even bearable in small doses. Not all of the time. Small doses.

    Who am I kidding? Ha ha ha... They're just annoying. Aren't we all though?

    Well, in conclusion - yes it is normal. Quite normal indeed, almost expected, but not an excuse!

    Sorry teenyboppers - but you will look back one day and realise that you were little jerks. Happens to us all.

      Yes every kid beat up a nerd, beat up a kid on camera, forced themselves on someone or treated someone so bad they killed themselves or shot up the school. This must be 100% of people. THAT IS WRONG!

        Damn near 100%.

        Seriously. Teenagers these days. And EVERY days.

        But, yes of course, not 100%. Nothing is ever 100%.
